A) Moonshadow was not kidnapped by the Emerald Ones, so they could not have sent him to the [SPOILER]’s home dimension;

B) Moonshadow is not the ambassador from Earth; he is her Softling consort, and was locked up with Atlas’ Half-Earthling son, the better to keep an eye on them (through a targetting scope);

C) Kevin is an Emerald Gauntlet; Julie is a F.I.S.S. They have both been trained by a veteran superhero in advanced combat with battle droids. They don’t need Moonshadow to bail them out from every problem they get into. Julie was able to defeat Beryl on her own. She also drove off the Imps and Cherubs without Moonshadow’s help. Do Moonshadow and 84 make a great team? Yes, but the operative word is “team”.

D) Moonshadow and Ron have problems of their own. If anything, they could really use Julie and Kevin’s help more.

Yeah, I don’t think so. That robot’s meant to keep Kryptonian expies AND Green Lantern expies away from that chamber, and those are among the most powerful superheroes ever created. Moon Shadow would probably be worse than useless there, because in order to even hurt an Argosian, that bot would have to be hitting hard enough to kill Moon Shadow in one hit, body armor or no body armor.

Well, Moonshadow is also an expy, of Robin. And Robin (and later Nightwing) wouldn’t hesitate to help the Teen Titans fight a bunch of giant robots. But if Robin/Nightwing wasn’t there in the first place, the rest of the Titans wouldn’t moan about his absence, they’d start smashing robots!

Rumble and Frenzy were two “Recordicons”, Decepticons from the Transformers G1 franchise that transformed into cassettes and hid in Soundwave’s chest compartment (Soundwave transformed into a walkman-like cassette deck in G1). Rumble and Frenzy’s toys were identical except for their color; Rumble’s toy was black and red, while Frenzy’s was light blue and purple. On the G1 cartoon, Rumble was light blue and purple, while Frenzy (when the little psycho bothered to show up at all) was red and black. In the Marvel Comics comic book series, both Rumble and Frenzy were purplish-blue (Nel Yomtov wasn’t the most consistent of colorists). Transformers fans have been arguing since 1984 what the correct color for Rumble and Frenzy should be.
